  20. Accounts of the form [nnn,0] have implicit privileges -- GRPPRV, I believe.
  21. It is a very bad idea for the PMDF account to have such access; it is
  22. certainly not needed and it can lead to trouble. We therefore don't allow
  23. the use of an account of this sort as the PMDF account.
